Kael's POV
As that wolf was about to attack us, I didn't know what happened. At that moment, I just thought—if only I could shift right now, I would take that wolf down.
And suddenly, my body started to shift. I had no idea how. For a second, I even thought I was infected. But then, I fully shifted.
After transforming, I fought the wolf. I didn't want to kill him, so I only knocked him down. But the moment I glanced at Silas… everything went black. I passed out.
When I opened my eyes, I was in an ambulance. And that little guy—Velric—was on top of me, crying his heart out like I had literally died.
But I was still alive! And yet, there he was, clinging to my chest like I was about to disappear.
Before I could even say anything, he lay down on top of me and hugged me tightly. That's when I instinctively patted his back, trying to comfort him.
Because that little guy was crying for me.
He was worried about me.
